Apparently the parent is now a lying hypocrite who flip flops on whether or not we should mess with bees.

Same thing with Iraq. We shouldn't have gone in and destabilized it, but given that we did it anyway, we now have to deal with the mess.
How do you explain away Libya, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Somalia, Uganda, Jordan, Turkey, Chad, Syria & the Ukraine? Even Bush/Cheney weren't that blood thirsty! Is there a military incursion on this planet that Obama DOESN'T want to get involved in? Meanwhile Hillary still thinks Obama is too soft, so I can only imagine how out of control we'll be if she's President.

What exactly is wrong with the current steps he is takling in Iraq? It's pretty simple really.... He's providing food and water to people stuck on a mountain who are starving to death { including children }..... and killing the people down below who are persecuting them and trying to commit genocide.....

I'd like to know what the issue here is?


exactly.....
The issue is NOT the humanitarian aid!
The issue is the bombs he has ordered dropped.
Dropping bombs is participating in WAR!
WE. DO. NOT. WANT. ANY. MORE. U.S. MILITARY. PERSONNEL. DIEING!

Libya was the only invasion that Obama was involved in if you want to call that an invasion, the remainder we were already there. Chad, Uganda, Turkey.... where did you get that?

Thank you.

6 Times Obama Was Against Military Action in Iraq - Hit & Run : Reason.com
The Iraq war was started with 935 lies said by the GW Bush White House, and Iraq had nothing to do with Sept 11, that's why Obama is against the Iraq war. But democrats were never against the war in Afghanistan.
Study: Bush, aides made 935 false statements in run-up to war - CNN.com


But even though Obama is against the Iraq war, the fact remains we started the war. We said we were bringing freedom to Iraq, and today we have terrorists in Iraq doing horrible things. Heck there's even a republican thread in this forum saying "Obama made the right decision (in Iraq.)"
